- Advertisement - Alfonso Cano joins Albertsons February 14, 2018 Alfonso Cano, formerly assistant produce director at Southern California-based Northgate Gonzales Markets, has joined Albertson’s Inc. in Boise, ID, as director of produce and floral. Cano, a Southern California native, has moved to Idaho and began his new position the first week of February. He reportedly will be involved in the expansion of Albertson’s Lucky banner. He recently self-identified as being affiliated with Lucky at an event of the Fresh Produce & Floral Council. Cano is the 2018 chairman of the board of that group. 1 / 2 When Albertsons purchased the American Stores Co. in 1998, it acquired the Lucky Store banner as well. However, all the Lucky Stores were renamed for the parent company and that banner was basically unused. In late 2006, Save Mart Supermarkets, a regional chain headquartered in Modesto, CA, bought Albertson’s Northern California division as well as the right to use the Lucky Stores banner in that specific geographic region. Others have used variations of the “Lucky” moniker since it was retired by Albertsons, which resulted in a number of lawsuits and settlements. Albertsons does have a handful of Lucky stores that it has opened over the years. A spokesperson for the firm confirmed Cano’s position as director of produce for Albertsons but did not elaborate on the specifics of his position. Cano started his career at Albertsons as a produce clerk in 1991 and stayed with the company for about a decade. He then went to Vons for four years and then worked for a one-store outfit and a distributor before coming back into retail with Northgate about a decade ago.

INTRODUCTION: FOOD RETAILING: 1850-1990 Before the introduction of supermarkets, fast food outlets, supercenters, and hypermarts, various other food retailing formats operated successfully in the US. During the latter half of the 19th century, the chain store began its rise to dominance as grocery retailing format. The chain grocery store began in 1859 when George Huntington Hartford and George Gilman founded The Great American Tea Company, which later came to be named The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (Adelman, 1959). The typical chain store was 45 to 55 square meters, containing a relatively limited assortment of goods.

MONITORING AND ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF TAX AND PRICE POLICIES ON UNITED STATES’ TOBACCO USE Frank J. Chaloupka, Ph.D. University of Illinois at Chicago U01 Advisory Panel Meeting, May 1st 2012, Chicago, Illinois Elizabeth Ginexi STATE AND COMMUNITY TOBACCO CONTROL RESEARCH INITIATIVE BACKGROUND FOR SCTC RESEARCH INITIATIVE Community and social norms favoring tobacco-free lifestyles vary greatly across populations. States and communities have played an important role in implementing tobacco prevention and control policies and programs, as well as in designing and implementing mass media campaigns. Significant knowledge gaps exist about how to best strengthen and reinforce tobacco-free social norms across diverse communities and counteract competing pro-tobacco norms. PURPOSE OF SCTC RESEARCH INITIATIVE NCI established the SCTC Research Initiative in 2009 to address high-priority research gaps in state and community tobacco control research: o Secondhand smoke policies o Tax and pricing policies o Mass media countermeasures and community and social norms o Tobacco industry marketing and promotion PROJECT STRUCTURE FOR SCTC RESEARCH COLLABORATION COORDINATING CENTER FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF TOBACCO CONTROL RESEARCH AND PRACTICE Research Triangle Institute (RTI) Staff: Carol Schmitt, Project Director; Todd Rogers, Associate Project Director; and Matthew Farrelly, Senior Advisor Role: • Increase scientific and organizational leadership necessary to facilitate interactive and integrative collaboration and communication of the research projects funded by this initiative. Specific Aims: Foster collaboration and communication among research project sites, NCI and the broader public health community. Collaborate with NCI, the Steering Committee and research project sites to identify and facilitate complementary, cross- site developmental research projects. Develop plans for translation and dissemination activities and site-specific and initiative-wide evaluation plans.

Food Retailing
Food Retailing Phil R. Kaufman Foodstore sales growth slowed over 1997-2002, as competition for the consumers’ food dollar intensified from nontraditional retailers selling food, and from food serv- ice outlets. Retailing profits stayed relatively high, however. Food retailers sought operational cost savings both in procurement and selling, in part through the greater use of information technologies. Mergers and acquisitions, including investor takeovers, continued to play an important role, building on a consolidation wave that began after 1996. Meanwhile, investment and acquisitions in U.S. food retailing by overseas retailers increased. Employment growth slowed as retailers aimed to con- tain growth in payrolls and improve productivity. Labor productivity has increased since 1997 as a result, reversing a long-term decline. Introduction Figure 3-1 U.S. foodstore sales, 2000 Foodstore sales have grown slowly in recent years (after Supermarkets--$337.1 adjusting for inflation), due to slow population growth and Superettes, small heightened competition by other retailers selling food.
